Installation Instructions
To install Bentley CulvertMaster:
Product Activation
Product activation is achieved by connecting to a SELECT Server, receiving a verifi-
cation that your SELECT Server Name and Activation Key are correct, and success-
fully posting Usage logs. Product activation is not the same as checking out a license.
This document describes how to configure Bentley CulvertMaster for activation. After
initial configuration, Bentley CulvertMaster automatically and transparently tries to
activate each time it runs, and runs unconstrained for a period of 30 days after its last
successful activation. However, if activation is unsuccessful for a period of 30 days,
Bentley CulvertMaster runs in unregistered mode with limited functionality.
The Product Activation Wizard is designed to step users through the product activa-
tion process. After a product is installed, you must obtain a license and then activate
that license. Obtaining the license alone is not enough to complete the process. This
wizard eliminates the confusion and makes it clear that obtaining a license and acti-
vating a product are two essential steps.
If you checked the Launch the Product Activation Wizard... during the installation
process the Product Activation Wizard opens automatically. See “Installation
Instructions” for more information on installing Bentley CulvertMaster.
You can also access the Product Activation Wizard from within the License
Management Tool. The shortcut for the License Management Tool can be found in
the Bentley/CulvertMaster shortcut submenu. After the License Management Tool
opens, click the Tools menu and select Product Avtivation Wizard.
The first screen of the Product Activation Wizard offers 4 product activation options:
The wizard steps you through the activation process based on the options selected.
If you are activating against a local SELECT Server, you must provide the proper
Server Name and Activation Key. The Server Name and Activation Key, along with
any proxy configuration information, can be obtained from your Site Administrator.
Important note for System Administrators: Bentley CulvertMaster will not run
with Bentley SELECT Server 2004 Edition (V8.5.2 and earlier). The latest version of
Bentley SELECT Server can be obtained from the Downloads/MySELECT CD area
of SELECTservices Online. Please note that you will need to obtain a new license file
if you upgrade to a newer version of Bentley SELECT Server. Contact the Bentley
Sales Support Center that services your area for information on upgrading your
current Bentley SELECT Server license file.
If you are activating against a hosted (Bentley) SELECT Server, the Server Name is
pre-populated but you must provide the proper Activation Key provided by the
Bentley Sales Support Center.
